Abstract: This paper reports on experimental and computational investigations of water flow over two-dimensional obstacles in an open channel. Both triangular and semi-circular obstacles are considered in ...

Abstract: The primary objective of this work is to study noise propagation in acoustically lined variable area ducts with mean fluid flow. The method of study is numerical in nature and involves a ...

Abstract: This work seeks to determine the effects of two-sided surface roughness amplitude on ultra-thin, compressible, isothermal, infinitely wide gas bearings. The transient Reynolds equation of lubrication ...

Abstract: This work presents an implicit, multidomain, Chebyshev spectral collocation method for the solution of the compressible Reynolds equation of lubrication for a self-acting air bearing supporting a ...

Abstract: At low to moderate Reynolds numbers, cast pin fin coldwalls provide the best performance and lowest unit cost for air-cooled electronics systems. Until recently, insufficient data existed to ...

Abstract: A new method of calculating the pressure field in the simulation of two-dimensional, unsteady, incompressible, free surface fluid flow by use of a marker and cell method is presented. A critical ...
